For the love of God, is anyone watching SNL? She is so ridiculous. This screeching song, the crazy costumes - hey it worked for Lady Gaga, I think I'll do it too. Do people really buy this attention seeking act or not? Seriously, I always thought Lady Gaga was strange, but it was her persona and she owned it. Miley just comes off as a petulant child crying out for attention. Or else I'm just really frickin' old.

Two reasons I can think of. First, if they don't announce it and they are seen out with other people, they look like real jerks (the Kardashian sisters husband) and they want to be Lao Ted as pained and distraught. Second, if they didn't, that's all people would ask them about.

As much as it pains me to say it, in the second photo here, I see a really strong resemblance to Tom. http://www.toofab.com/2015/09/27/suri-cruise-katie-holmes-global-citizen-festival/

One times one equals two, terryology (patent pending), 17 hours soldering crystals... Terrence Howard Discusses Watching His Father Kill a Man in 'Santa Line Slaying' Terrence Howard Talks Father's Role in 1971 Killing, Revolutionary Math Ideas Terrence Howard Getty By Drew Mackie @drewgmackie 09/14/2015 AT 11:00 PM EDT When Terrence Howard was only 2 years old, a visit to a Cleveland, Ohio, department store to meet Santa Claus veered into tragedy. A scuffle between his father, Tyrone Howard, and another man in line ended in the latter's death. In a new profile in Rolling Stone, Howard, 46, discusses the 1971 incident, for which his father was sentenced to prison on manslaughter charges. As a result of the "Santa Line Slaying," Howard's father ended up serving 11 months in prison, at which point he was paroled for good behavior. Howard's mother and father separated shortly thereafter. Accounts differ about what led to the altercation between Tyrone Howard and Jack Fitzpatrick, another father taking his family to visit Santa. Some allege race motivated an argument between the two men, and others speculate on the nature of the weapon Howard's father used to stab Fitzpatrick. (The weapon was never recovered.) However, in the Rolling Stone profile, Howard says that his father imparted to him the need for a man to stand up for himself. "My daddy taught me, 'Never take the vertebrae out of your back or the bass out of your throat. I ain't raisin' sheep. I raised men. Stay a man,' " Howard recalls. "But being a man comes with a curse because it's not a society made for men to flourish anymore. Everything is androgynous, you know? The more successful men now are the effeminate." Exclusive: Oprah as Cookie's Mom? Sign Us up! Throughout the interview, Howard discusses his lifelong status as an outsider. For example, he was a victim of childhood bullying that resulted from his light skin. At age 13, his uncle taught him to defend himself. "I was the pretty boy, so people didn't think I could defend myself, but it didn't end up being a good day for them." The actor also implies that being an outsider helped him think differently. Perhaps foremost among Howard's unconventional ideas is his revolutionary theory about math: specifically that one times one is two, not one. Calling his ideas about math "Terryology," which he has patented, Howard claims they will change the way people understand the universe. "This is the last century that our children will ever have been taught that one times one is one," he says. "They won't have to grow up in ignorance. Twenty years from now, they'll know that one times one equals two. We're about to show a new truth. The true universal math. "And the proof is in these pieces," referring to a set of plastic shapes that he and his wife, Mira Pak, have cut out and assembled. "I have created the pieces that make up the motion of the universe. We work on them about 17 hours a day. She cuts and puts on the crystals. I do the main work of soldering them together. They tell the truth from within." The piece also reveals that Wesley Snipes was creator Lee Daniels' first choice to play the Lyon family patriarch on Empire, but Taraji P. Henson, who plays Howard's wife onscreen and who starred opposite him in 2005's Hustle & Flow, insisted on Howard for the lead role. Howard feels he is close to his Empire character. "Everything I do with Lucious is still me," he says. "I just change the vibration. Because Lucious has a very base understanding of life – kill or be killed – I keep him down at a very low frequency." And among other revelations – including that while in high school he cured his Bell's palsy facial paralysis by shocking himself with wires from his father's electric razor – Howard says he would like to quit from acting after Empire. "I'm just trying to pay my bills. I'm looking forward to this show running its course. If I make a decent amount of money from it, I'll retire," he says. "The problem with this business," he says, "you lose yourself." blog comments powered by Disqus

My kids are going as Flo from Progressive and Jake from State Farm. Maybe they watch too much TV...

My city has a local website that published all of the user data from Ashley Madison for our area and things have gotten really interesting around here to say the least. Not commenting on the morality of either using the site or utilizing the data, but I'm wondering if anyone really famous is going to get hit through this. You would think famous people would be savvy about hiding this, but then again...

Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt have ended their relationship, PEOPLE confirms exclusively. "With great sadness, we have decided to separate, after 18 years of love and shared history," the couple tells PEOPLE in a joint statement. "We will continue to be supportive of each other in every way possible moving forward." Having been plagued with split rumors for months, Hamm, 44, and Wesfeldt, 45, were last seen publicly together on July 22 in New York at the premiere after-party for Netflix's Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, where they were "canoodling" with each other, according to reports. Earlier this year, the Mad Men star completed rehab for alcohol abuse and credited Westfeldt for supporting him throughout his treatment. In April, the couple even released a statement denying reports they had broken up. Keep up with Jon Hamm in the pages of PEOPLE Magazine by subscribing now. Hamm told PEOPLE last year that he felt lucky to have Westfeldt, an actress and screenwriter, in his life. "Our lives are entwined," the actor said. "It's a long time [together]. I'm definitely the guy that repeats his stories! Mostly it's just paying attention and keeping engaged and not succumbing to inertia or going through the motions." The two began dating in 1997 and starred together in the 2011 film Friends with Kids. • With reporting by AILI NAHAS

ETA I'm glad you've found so egging that works for you. It would suck Ido couldn't read anymore. If it makes you happy, go for it! There are so many worse vices.

Is he using her for fame? Well, well, well. It seems Kris Jenner may want to put a muzzle on her new boyfriend. The pimp momager matriarch has been stepping out with the much younger Corey Gamble, and he hasnt learned that what happens (or doesnt happen) behind closed doors should, well, stay there. In his defense, the Kardashians have invited camera crews into every aspect of their lives, so he probably figures that the beans hes spilling have been caught on film at some point. The thirty-three year old recently opened up Kim Kardashian and Kanye Wests relationship (or lack thereof) in an interview with entertainment blog SandraRose.com, but it has since been taken down from the site. I guess you dont mess with Kris! Thankfully, its the Internet and nothing truly ever goes away (take note, teens!), so weve got the scoop on what he said. CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE! The New Pittsburgh Courier snagged some excerpts from the interview before it disappeared, and Im going to venture a guess that Corey has now been enrolled in the Kardashian publicity kontrol kampor perhaps hes been whisked away to some remote island on which we wish the rest of that family would permanently vacation! The interview was initially meant as Coreys explanation for lying about his age in the press, stating he was in his forties so that the fifty-nine-old Kris didnt sound so kougarific! However, Corey quickly segued into the odd dynamics of Kimyes marriage. Defending his new love, Corey begins, I think Kris is a great woman. I know she has a bad reputation in the media, but shes been loving to me. Ive spent the night over there with Kris and Kim um, Kanye is never there Corey continued to put his foot in his mouth about Kanye, sharing, He um, he uh, has another house in the Los Angeles area. I think hes recording. Hes not really there. I dont know what kind of relationship they have going on, but hes not ever there Yeah, its um I shouldnt probably be talking about it, but its none of my business, adding, Hes never at the house. He goes on to reveal that Kim is still living at home with Kris, stating, Yeah, Kim lives with Kris. They are supposed to be buying a house down the street. Um, its not my businessI really dont think Kim wants to leave Kris. Bruce Jenner, bullet dodger. TELL US-DO YOU THINK KRIS WILL KEEP COREY AROUND AFTER THIS FAUX PAS?

I'm still using my three sites to track as well. I'd migrate it all to goodreads but I have to hide my trashy romance novels somewhere! One interesting thing about goodreads is that my kids are on now (11 and 14). It's the only social network they are allowed to use and they are friends with their cousins. The competitive nature of it and the sharing of recommendations (and the ability to be on a social network) have made them read MUCH more than they have before. My daughter got a kindle recently and she loves clicking that "update goodreads" button almost as much as she likes "liking" everyone's reviews.

Ooh! I think I had Gwen and Gavin in the poll!

Oh good lord can you be more of a cliché?? Ben Affleck denies he is dating his children's nanny Ben Affleck has spoken out to deny reports that he is dating his children's nanny. The father-of-three, who recently split from his wife of ten years Jennifer Garner, has been romantically linked to 28-year-old Christine Ouzounian, but a spokesman for the star shut down the claims, telling the New York Post's Page Six: "The story is garbage and full of lies. "You shouldn't be able to hide behind 'blind stories' and attempt to destroy families going through a difficult time. The tabloid decided to construct stories in order to sell magazine. It's like story time in kindergarten. It's shameful and desperate." CLICK ON PHOTO TO ENLARGE ben-jennifer- Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner announced their end of their ten-year marriage in June Us Weekly had claimed that Ben, 42, and his estranged wife had hired Christine to look after their children Violet, nine, Seraphina, six, and three-year-old Samuel while they were going through a trial separation. A friend of Christine's told the magazine: "They would hang out without the kids. And they were very flirty." The source went on to say that the nanny is claiming "it's true love". Ben and Jennifer announced their split last month in a joint statement, writing: "We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy who ask to be respected during this difficult time." Since then both have been pictured on a number of occasions with their wedding rings still on reportedly for the sake of their children. Despite their split, the couple are not rushing to file for divorce. A source told People: "Jennifer's finishing a film so there hasn't been like 'Ok, let's get this done now', because they always were like, 'This is happening and still moving forward.' I don't think they are talking about it. "They are concentrating on being a family right now."

And a follow up question. Has chit chat made us all conspiracy theorists?

Ok, so... She has the accident late January and there are some whispers that she was pregnant. February 5 Bobby announces that his wife is 4 months pregnant. Roll out the suspect blind items, etc. etc that lead to potentially keeping her alive as an incubator. Bobby's kid is born and just after that she passes.. My question is, what would be the advantage of hiding a pregnancy. It would mean more money to the baby if it's hers, but then the father (Nick) has greater access to it. Is the reason for (potentially) covering it up to keep the money in the family and split between the Browns and Houstons?

I recorded that too. Also haven't watched.

I also got the impression from the article that once people become camp Blake, there's a lot of dish about her that they will spill after holding it in out of respect for him.

I'll be honest, I couldn't get that link above, so I had only seen the headline. I just came across another article elsewhere and the big take away for me is that they are ALREADY divorced! That's sneaky.

This is totally unsurprising. As you said, they've been rumored forever.

I also think it's a stereotypical midlife crisis move. He's a bit old, but...

Yep. For several reasons.

I also see this as a face-saving easy out for a terrible, career threatening pr nightmare that is his relationship with Scientology.

If you won't quit your cult for your kid, you won't quit for anything. I think it depends where the other kids are with it.

Yes, you can get a monthly membership just for streaming or a monthly membership to just get DVD by mail. You can also buy a year or whatever at a time, but most people do a month at a time. I think the original programming is ONLY streaming. Is this a movie sequel or have they turned it into a series? If it's a movie that you can watch in two hours, just sign up for the free trial, watch the movie, then cancel it. There's no "just buy this one movie" option.

I was just coming to post this, you beat me to it! Surprising to none of us, I'm sure. NOW PLAYING Affleck omission halts PBS show Never autoplay videos NEW YORK – Hollywood stars Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner announced plans Tuesday to divorce after ten years of marriage. "After much thought and careful consideration we have made the difficult decision to divorce," a statement released by the couple said just hours after Fox411 learned the couple's separation was imminent. "We go forward with love and friendship for one another and a commitment to co-parenting our children whose privacy we ask to be respected during the difficult time." ADVERTISEMENT The couple has three children, ages 10, 6 and 3. Rumors about the pair's divorce were running rampant after a source told FOX411 that the two had been living separately for several months. An insider source said Garner was looking at the break up as an opportunity to move out from under Affleck’s shadow and revive her acting career. “Jen is excited to get back to work," according to the source. "She took a step back to focus on her marriage and family but wants to return to making more movies.” Another industry insider said it’s no surprise to those close to the couple. “It’s been known they’re having trouble. Now, it’s really over,” the source said. A former neighbor of the Hollywood duo also confirmed the couple was on the outs. “It’s kind of heartbreaking to see a long time A-list husband and wife and seemingly loving parents splitting up,” the source added. Paparazzi last snapped the couple together on a family outing on June 14th in Los Angeles at a farmer’s market. Garner, 43, was recently spotted visiting Boston’s Children Hospital on June 26, reportedly preparing for her upcoming role in “Miracles from Heaven.” Affleck, 42, popped up on social media on June 27 writing the line “I’m Batman” on his co-star from “The Accountant” Seth Lee’s Instagram in anticipation of 2016’s “Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.” Affleck and Garner married in 2005 after meeting on the set of “Daredevil.” They have three young children. FOX411 reached out to both the Garner and Affleck’s camps several times but did not receive comment. Diana Falzone is a FoxNews.com reporter. You can follow her on Twitter

If I wanted to believe the pregnancy rumors, this ties in nicely to the recent blind about a baby being born premature. Baby is born so no longer need to keep her on life support. Keeping the boyfriend away so he can't confirm the pregnancy. Then does Bobbys wife present the baby as hers?
